Biracha on desserts

Prayers and Blessings
1

Gut Voch,
What is the Ravs opinion regarding Biracha on desserts (after eating bread)?
Thank you.

Generally, food that comes as dessert and aren’t part of the meal require a bracha even though you washed for bread.

So if you eat an apple or cake as dessert you would be required to make a bracha.

Is there a specific food that you are having a question about?

3

eg Cake, Apple pie, Ice cream and ices.

4

All require a bracha

Should you bench birkat hamazon and then eat dessert?

6

No, first eat dessert and then say birkat hamazon. Birkat hamazon will cover the meal and the dessert.

I washed for bread and am having chicken as my main course. What if I’m eating an apple while also eating my main course chicken? Do I need to make a bracha on the apple?

Yes.
